The exterior of the building is SO HARM
less and inoffensive in appearance that few
persons would suspect that behind those
walls are concealed something like go
human beings, the majority of them young
men, engaged i'll mastering the technicali-
ties connected with the preservation and
extraction Of molars, bicuspids, incisors,
CANNES and all the other things in the
mouth to which the scientists have given
such terrible names, and which, on occas-
sion, ache so like the late Samuel Hill. Is
ii not q dreadful thought? Two hundred
and fifty men about to be turned loose
upon the inhabitants of this city, TO estab-
lish 25O dental rooms, TO smile blandly
upon 2J0 patients who come timidly m,
holding on To their jaws; 10 pop them into

long drawn ''ahsr expressive of immeas

containing about a dozen chairs of a kind

were occupied by twelve unfortunaies,
mostly females, in various stages Of un
happiness. There wasn't cheerfulness
enough diffused over all their counte-
nances put together TO make up one single
sickly defeated candidate the day after
election smile. But there was enough
cheerfulness on the faces of the operators,
- well as on those of the other students
who were visible, to rather more than over
balance the gloom that otherwise ,charsc-
terfzed the proceedings.
By rare good fortune the artist recog-
nized friend in a six foot student, who
wcs watching a young man run buzz
saw between the teeth Of q neatly dressed
and rather attractive yolng lady. He
consented to act the part OF cicerone, and
